Praise the Lord and Pass the Soup (with The Carter Family & The Oak Ridge Boys)

Lyrics

Sister, you can bang on your tambourine
 Just let my body be fed
 At the end of our street
 Is a mission so sweet
 Where me and all of my friends
 Can get a little something to eat
 Though you can't pick and choose (oh-oh-oh)
 You'll sure like their stew (oh-oh-oh)
 And if you don't get fried chicken
 What you get you can use
 Praise the Lord and pass the soup
 Praise the Lord and pass the bread
 Sister, you can bang on your tambourine
 Just let my body be fed
 For the sake of a prayer (hallelujah)
 There's a warm welcome there (hallelujah)
 And if you ain't had a bath
 Ain't nobody who cares (ain't nobody who cares)
 'Cause they've seen it all before (oh-oh-oh)
 From the bum to the whores (oh-oh-oh)
 And if you shout hallelujah
 They'll sometimes give you some more
 Praise the Lord and pass the soup
 Praise the Lord and pass the bread
 Sister, you can bang on your tambourine
 Just let my body be fed
 And singing
 Hallelujah, hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah, hallelujah
 Just let my body be fed
 Hallelujah, hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah, hallelujah (praise the Lord now, hallelujah)
 Just let my body be fed
 Hallelujah, hallelujah (hallelujah)
 Hallelujah (praise the Lord and hallelujah)
 Hallelujah, hallelujah
 Just let my body be fed
 Hallelujah, hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah, hallelujah
 Just let my body be fed
 One more time
 Hallelujah, hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
